Fladgate Trainee Programme

Fladgate Trainee Programme

Starting from 2020, Fladgate will recruit trainees solely through our new vacation scheme – in response to feedback collated from graduate students.

The vacation scheme provides graduate students – our potential future trainees – an opportunity to gain hands on experience at the Firm and a good understanding of what life as a Fladgate trainee will be like.

Joining us as a trainee you’ll be immersed in our business from the start. With practical, hands-on exposure to active work and a comprehensive education programme, we’ll give you the opportunity to shine. Read more »
